sketch of rupert murdoch by emily weil

Yesterday I got my paints out to capture the deep purple tulips on my table from Trader Joe’s. Produced two duds. So I thought I would post this sketch of Rupert Murdoch; I’m a news junkie and sometimes freeze the TV screen to draw interesting faces.

Have you ever traveled to a number of places and found by the end of the trip that you were glad to have gotten a brief taste of these destinations, but never had a full meal? I kind of feel like that today, only the menu lists a number of life events that I am trying to chew thoroughly. My jaw aches a little. Maybe I should pretend I’m wine-tasting — swirl some in my mouth for the flavors and then spit it out. Dunno. Looking for my Tums®.
